[PATCH] ARM: dts: nuvoton: Fix flash layout

[Tomer Maimon]

Hi Anton,

The reason the u-boot Env is at 0x100000 address is that some
costumers have:
one copy of Bootblock and U-boot at 0x0 - 0x80000
second copy of Bootblock and U-boot at 0x80000 - 0x100000.

we have two options;
1. Modify the OpenBMC device tree flash layout u-boot Env address to
0x100000.
2. Add a patch to OpnBMC platform that using openbmc flash layout to
modify CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET
in the u-boot.

Thanks,

Tomer
